Having a Happily Ever After is always a main portion to every fairytale, but sometimes this is not always the case.

Reflection:
Being able to work with the Voicethread was actually fun. I am the type of person that does not like to record or listen to myself talk, but I feel that this is a great tool to use for students in my future classroom. The ability to do different things on the voicethread amazed me and it was very simple to figure out. Adding this voicethread into my future classroom I think would be fun for the students to create and enjoy making their own fairytales.
